Brief Guide: Experimental Strategies for High-Quality Hit Selection from Small-Molecule Screening Campaigns.
Article in SLAS discovery : advancing life sciences R & D, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Small-molecule screening is a powerful approach to identify modulators of either specific biological targets or cellular pathways with phenotypic endpoints. A myriad of assay technologies are available to assess the activity of enzymes, monitor protein-protein interactions, measure transcription factor activity in reporter assays, or detect cellular features and activities using high-content imaging. A common challenge during small-molecule screening is, however, the presence of hit compounds generating assay interference, thereby producing false-positive hits. Thus, efforts are needed to uncover such interferences to prioritize high-quality hits for further analysis. This process encompasses (1) computational approaches to flag undesirable compounds, and (2) the use of experimental approaches like counter, orthogonal, and cellular fitness screens to identify and eliminate artifacts. In this brief guide, we provide an overview for first-time users, highlighting experimental screening strategies to prioritize high-quality bioactive hits from high-throughput screening/high-content screening (HTS/HCS) campaigns.
